Stillwater.As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Damon attributed his emotional response to being with his peers for the first time after the coronavirus outbreak.“I think we’ll all look back and remember this moment of launching out of COVID. And what a way to do it,” he said.“To be in the same room with 1,000 other people who are strangers, but are also part of the same community because we all love the same thing… it was such a great reminder of why we do this.”Damon continued: “I never would have appreciated it in that way had we not just gone through what we went through.”Finally, he concluded that the premiere was “unlike any other experience I’ve had here.”Damon stars as a blue-collar oil rig worker in Stillwater.

It’s been a rocky four-plus years in American foreign policy, and nowhere is this more apparent than in “Stillwater,” the new thriller-slash-family drama from “Spotlight” director Tom McCarthy, which premiered out-of-competition at Cannes. Partially inspired by the Amanda Knox trial, but mostly a strangely affecting family drama concocted by screenwriting team Thomas Bidegain, Noé Debré, and Marcus Hinchey, the film totters uneasily between the two modes over the course of 140 minutes, never quite finding its footing.

CANNES – In Tom McCarthy’s “Stillwater,” Matt Damon plays Bill Baker, a “roughneck” (oil rig worker) from Oklahoma who is trying to help his daughter Allison prove her innocence for a murder she was convicted of in France. The film, which debuted to mixed reviews at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival, attempts to mix humor into its sometimes messy dramatic thriller mix.

EXCLUSIVE: Tomorrow night’s Cannes premiere of Stillwater marks the end of a long odyssey for co-writer/director Tom McCarthy, who put down the script almost a decade ago, and moved on to win an Oscar for co-writing and directing Best Picture winner Spotlight and get nominated for co-writing the Best Animated Film Oscar winner Up. Stillwater stars Matt Damon as an Oklahoma roughneck with a shoddy past as a father who heads to Marseille hellbent on freeing his daughter (Abigail Breslin), an exchange student imprisoned for murdering her girlfriend, a crime she says she didn’t commit.

It’s a loose riff on the Amanda Knox story, basically. A father travels from Oklahoma to France to help his estranged daughter, who is in prison for a murder she claims she didn’t commit.
